From the late 1970s, Herb Ritts quickly gained a reputation as a master of art and commercial photography; in addition to portrait and fashion work for Vogue, Vanity Fair, and Rolling Stone, he created campaigns for designers like Calvin Klein, Coco Chanel, Gianni Versace, and Valentino Garavani. Giving us scores of interviews with his closest associates and confidants (including Klein, Cindy Crawford, Elton John, Anna Wintour, Madonna, and Christopher Buckley), and illuminated with many never-before-seen images (behind-the-scenes shots from photo shoots, parties, travels, intimate portraits, and moments with friends), this book reveals the personal aspects of Ritts's world, his highly influential art, and his legacy.
